Monumentally. I cannot think of a single corporation or landlord that would not raise their prices to account for the higher amount of money in the system. It's like going to a car dealership and telling them how much money you have. A UBI would feel great in the short run but would quickly get swallowed up by the economy, but in the short term it feels good so it gets public support.
